The mcp-function-app-tester server allows you to test and interact with Azure Function App endpoints running locally in your development environment. With this server, you can:
Test Function App endpoints using HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
Send optional request bodies for POST/PUT requests
Add custom headers to requests
Obtain detailed response information for debugging
Support various authentication methods: Basic Authentication, Bearer Token, API Key
Configure authentication via environment variables
Access endpoints at the base URL:
http://localhost:7071/apiSpecify relative endpoint paths (e.g.,
/users)
The MCP server is built with TypeScript, but it doesn't integrate with TypeScript as a service.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-function-app-testertest GET endpoint /users with bearer token auth"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
MCP Function App Tester
A TypeScript-based MCP server that enables testing of Azure Function Apps through Cline. This tool allows you to test and interact with Function App endpoints directly from your development environment.
Installation
npm install dkmaker-mcp-function-app-testerRelated MCP server: mcp-rest-api
Features
Test Function App endpoints with different HTTP methods
Support for GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests
Detailed response information
Custom header support
Request body handling for POST/PUT methods
Authentication support:
Basic Authentication (username/password)
Bearer Token Authentication
API Key Authentication (custom header)
Authentication
The server supports two authentication methods that can be configured via environment variables:
Basic Authentication
Set both environment variables to enable Basic Authentication:
AUTH_BASIC_USERNAME=your-username
AUTH_BASIC_PASSWORD=your-passwordBearer Token
Set this environment variable to enable Bearer Token authentication:
AUTH_BEARER=your-tokenAPI Key
Set both environment variables to enable API Key authentication:
AUTH_APIKEY_HEADER_NAME=X-API-Key # The header name to use (e.g., X-API-Key, api-key, etc.)
AUTH_APIKEY_VALUE=your-api-key # The actual API key valueNote: Authentication precedence order:
Basic Authentication (if username and password are set)
Bearer Token (if token is set and Basic Auth is not configured)
API Key (if header name and value are set, and no other auth is configured)
Usage
Once installed, you can use the Function App Tester through Cline. The server provides tools to test endpoints at the base URL: http://localhost:7071/api
Example usage:
// Test a GET endpoint
{
"method": "GET",
"endpoint": "/users"
}
// Test a POST endpoint with body
{
"method": "POST",
"endpoint": "/users",
"body": {
"name": "John Doe",
"email": "john@example.com"
}
}
// Test with custom headers
{
"method": "GET",
"endpoint": "/secure/data",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer token123"
}
